Doepfer

Hello everyone
i got my new modules(a107, a149-1, a167) a few weeks ago so here are 
my first experiences. 

a107: good sounding filters, the different typs are very useful. i 
found that it is not that easy to get good results with morphing but 
this is of course a subject still to explore. for me the clocked mode 
worked best. it's is a great thing to change the filtertypes in a 
rhythmic way. one thing i don't understand: why is there no highpass 
filter with selfoscilation in the a107? is this because of the used 
chips? imo the doepfer systems still doesn't offer a "real" high pass 
filter with selfoscillation one thing a really like. the a121
highpass is somehow strange when putting to low frequencies (more
like 
bandpass), i don't know the a123 but i heard it has the same problem. 

a149-1: now this is great i can listen hours to the modulations of
the a149-1. after i got the a149 i had to buy a a156 quantiser module 
so i could play random melodies also in different scales. by the way
i 
think it would be nice to have a quantiser module with more 
possiblities. maybe with a on/off switch for every semitone. i also 
noticed that my a149-1 reacts on the falling egde of the clock
signal. normally this is no problem but it would be better the other 
way around. 

a167: the comparator module is not very spectacular but i found it 
very useful for manipulation cv signals. i also like the possibility  
of getting gate signals out cv signals.
